Tithi is the date according to the Hindu
lunar calendar. The Hindu lunar calendar consists of a dark and a bright
fortnight. Completion of 12 degrees of movement on that of Sun is called
a Tithi or Hindu Day. There are 30 tithis in a lunar month. Tithis are
shown in two major halves called Pakshas, Shukla Paksha and Krishna
Paksha. There are several rituals and festivals associated with the
Tithi. Tithi is significant from point of view of undertaking some
rituals and functions as most of the Hindu festivals fall on the new
moon day or the full moon day.
The Hindu Tithis are classified into 5 types:

Nanda Tithi – Bestows
happiness, enjoyment.

Bhadra Tithi -
Auspicious for stating new work

Jaya Tithi -
Auspicious for winning over enemies.

Rikta Tithi – To be
avoided for any important work.

not like the Modern Time when a date changes at midnight

Nakshatra

An astrologer must give
special attention to the position of Moon places
in particular Nakshatra (constellation). The
Sanskrit word Nakshatra means “that which does not
decay.”

There are twenty-seven
Nakshatras considered in Vedic Astrology. Each one of them has thirteen
degree and twenty minutes of the zodiac. Nakshatra can be known with
help of degrees of Moon in a particular sign at the time of birth.

The Nakshatras influence
the quality of the Rashi in which they are positioned. The sequence of
the 27 Nakshatras begins with Ashwini Nakshatra in
Mesha Rashi.

the inauspicious time period with in a complete day for starting any
new, auspicious or important work.

Though, RahuKalam
is calculated with help of Sun-Rise and Sun-Set
time. Hence,
this is obvious that it will differ from place to place.

Rahu Kalam is one and a
half hour time each day of a week distributed at random in the week
days.

Since the Rahu Kalam is dependent on the Sun-rise and Sun-set times of
your particular location, you must calculate it for any day.

Yamagandam

Like Rahu Kalam the
following periods known as Yamagandam
during which it is considered to be inauspicious to start any important
work.
